ASH-RECEPTACLE. 1'

To all whom it may concem:

Be it known that I, Orrro PARTENHEIMER,

of the city of New York, borough of Manhattan. State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ash-Receptacles, of which the following is a full, 'clear, and exact specification, such.

as will enable others skilledin the art to which it apper'tains' to make and use the same.

- My invention relates to an ash receptacle,

. intended for use by smokers, and to provide gota table or chair within oftlie smoker. An important object means not only for receiving the ashes, but for holding cigars and matches.

The invention also relates to those ash 'r'eceptaoles in whichthe bowl is' nounted ona stand, so that it may be placed at the side convelnent'reacli to facilitate the transportation of these devices and'to'accompli'sh this end I construct the stand so that it may be readily detached from the bowl and folded for convenient -transportation. j

qtill a further object ofm'yinvention is to improve the bowl and the manner of con.-

i inafte'r and;

necting thejsame with the stand.

My invention contemplates other objects and involves various other novel features, all of which will be fully pointed out hereparticularly defined in the claims. I

Reference is now had to the accompanying drawings which illustrate as an example the preferred manner of .embodying my' invention.

In these drawings: Figure 1 is a side 'elevation ofthe invention operatively adj usted Fig. 2 is a. view showing the stand detached and folded; Fig. 3 isan enlarged vertical section through the bowl showing the mannor of connectingthe same with the stand,

and also showing themanner for holdingthe g ass in place; Fig. -l is, a plan view of the device in its operative adjustment and Figs.-

5 and 6 are the detail view of the lateh by which the parts of the stand are extended.

' The stand is preferably constructed of three legs 10, the lower ends 10 of which are spread out as shown in the drawings toetf ect a broad base line, and the upper ends 10 of which are bent out horizontally and formed with undercut notches 10, the walls of which F -.are adapted to coact with the bowl to mount" of my invention is Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Feb, 1910, Application filed July 29, 1909. Serial No. 510,192.

Each of the legs 10 has two studs 11 and '12which'. when the stand is adjusted, project inward toward .each other in such a .manner 'the disk while the other two are pivoted as indicated by brokenlines 16 in Figs. 5 and 6. By this construction the legs 10 may be nioved'out into triangular relation to each other as shown in Figs. -1 and 4 or the studs 11 and 12 which are. pivoted to the-blocks 14; and 15 and may be swung in flat alongside of the other leg so that the stand assumes the form shown in Figs. 2 and 6 and lies compactlyso that it may be easily crated for transportation. For holding the legs in this extended position, I provide a catch the de tails of which are illustrated in Figs. 5 and 6. This catch is illustrated at 17 and is mounted on a spring 18 which is soldered or otherwise fastened to the stud 1 2, which is fastened to the block 15. .Said. catch is formed on its upper surface with shoulders '19 indicated b broken'lines in Figs. 5 and 6; and preferab y the spring 18 has its end turned downwardto form a handle by which the catchvn'iay bepulled down against the tendency of the spring 18.- The shoulders 19 of the catch 17 are'adapted to engage the .studs 12 which are pivoted to the block 15 when the legs are extended, thus holding the stand in the adjustment shown in Figs. 1 and 5. \Vhen it is desired to fold the stand the catch 17' shoul'dbe pulled down disengaging the shoulders 19 from the studs 4 12 and allowing the, stand to be folded in the manner described. The block 15 is formed with shoulders 21. against which the studs 12 engage when the stand is extended as shown in Fi 5.

The bowl 22 is preferably spun" of ductile sheet metal and formedat its basewith an enlargement 22 for ornamental purposes.

The botton'i of'the bowl 22 has fastened to ,it an annular 'fiange 23, the lower edge of j which is inturned as shown in Fig. in such a' nanncr that it may engage with the under- 'cut walls ofthe notches 10 of the legs of the stand, thus attaching the bowl to the stand.

To attach and detach the bow] with and the same as will hereinafter fully appear. i from the stand, it is only necessary to spring I in the resilient legs 10, s6 that the undercut-l 'wallsof the notches 10 disengage the flange 23. Upon relaxing the pressure of the legs they spring outward reengaging the flange-.23.

lnteriorly the bowl 22 is provided with a glass cup 24, which receives the ashes and is removable so that it may be readily cleaned. This cup 24=-is held in place by a rim 25 which has three downwardly projecting flanges,.26, 27 and 28. The rim 1S spun of metal and the intermediate flange 27 soldered or otherwise attached. The. flange 26 projects downwardalongside of the cup 24, the

I flange 27 projects downward betweenthe l downward outside of the bowl.

cup and bowl and the flange 28 projects Preferably the flange28 is inturned at its lower. edge to. present an enlarged appearance as shown in Fig.1 which, however, is purely a. matter of ornamentation. The sides of the bowl are provided with two inwardly projecting studs 29 ada ted to engage the walls of bayonet slots 0 in the flange 27, thus securing the rim in place on the bowl and holding the glass cup in position. -To remove the glass cup the rim maybe rea'di-ly detached andthe cup lifted from the bowl.

As shown in Figs' 1, 3 and 4, the rim 25' carries holders 31'for ci ars and the holder folding stand formedof a plurality of legs,

bowl, and a catch hingedly co n-ieeted together and means for detachably connecting the stand with the for holding the legs of the stand.

2. An ash receptacle comprising a stand formed of legs with inwardly projecting studs, means for hinging the studs together so that the stand may be folded, a bowl and means for detachably connecting it with the stand. a

An ash receptacle comprising a stand having resilient upper members, bowl and a depending nwardly dlrected flange thereon adapted to be engaged by resilient members,

detachably to connect the bowl and stand.

An ash receptacle having a stand withresilient upper members, having undercut slots, a bowl and a member on the bowl to be engaged by the walls of'said slots detacha-bly to connect the bowl and stand.

5.,A11 ash receptacle having a stand with resilient upper members furnished with undercut notches, a bowl and an underturn flange 0n the bowl to be. received in said notches.

6. An ash receiver com rising a bowl and a folding stand adapte to support said bowl, said stand being formed of a plurality of legs hingedly connected together tofold about a vertical axls.

In testimony whereof Ihave signed my name to this specification in the presence two subscriblng wlt-nesses.
